The 3570k is better for gaming hands down. Xeon CPUs can play games ofc, just not designed for it, they are designed for power eficiency, so they can run nonstop for days and days, while desktop CPUs i5s, and i7s are designed to run as fast as posible in order to give u the best performance.

Yes. Regardless of your CPU, you’ll see better results in WvW with an overclock. Get the K version, along with a motherboard and cooler that can handle it, and get as high as you can (without killing the chip ofc).
